Australian tennis player Nick Kyrgios had several outbursts during his first-round match against British wild card Paul Jubb at the All England Club on Tuesday, including lashing out at a line judge and spitting in the direction of a heckler. 

Kyrgios, 27, advanced past Jubb despite dropping the first set, but the pressure seemed to get to him early in the match when, just 12 minutes in, Kyrgios went on a rant after a female line judge approached the chair umpire to report something that he had said during the match.

"Has one person today come here to see her speak? No," Kyrgios said to the chair umpire. "Why is she doing that? No one person in the stadium has watched her come to do anything. Not one person." 

He called the line judge a "snitch" and after the match disputed what was said.

He also addressed spitting in the direction of a fan that had been heckling him throughout the match.
